Is Flu bad

Answer 1

Swine Flu is a potentially dangerous form of the influenza virus, but it is not clear how bad the pandemic might get. Swine flu spreads quickly through populations - which is what gives it the pandemic status - but does not seem to have a particularly high mortality rate. It's likely that a large number of people will become infected with the current strain and suffer some bad flu symptoms, but not so likely that this will translate into a major public health issue. The Swine Flu can have as little harm as the regular flu or it could get so bad that you would need to go intohospitalization. However, this normally only happens if you have health problems to begin with. They also just came out with a new vaccine for it, so that should lower the rating of how bad it is.
